Chapter 823 Xin En

The spy crawled on the ground, only to hear Shi Miyuan's peaceful voice slowly descending from a high place: "He just caught one person? Didn't say anything?"

"He didn't speak publicly, but he talked to Mr. Xue, and Mr. Xue told us to send a message back quickly."

"What?"

"He said... for a while, his hand was a little heavy, and the person who hurt the Xiangye will find out a hidden danger for the Xiangye."

The spies spread the word in vain, but they did not know what the words meant.He was worried that he came in a hurry, there was some omission in the message, and seeing that everyone in the prime minister's mansion was shitting, he knew that the prime minister didn't look very happy, so he still didn't look up after he finished speaking.

He galloped all the way here, covered in sweat, and at this moment, drops of sweat fell from his forehead and temples onto the slate floor.

After a while, Shi Miyuan said again: "I understand, you can step back."

The spy felt relieved, kowtowed his head, and walked out of the courtyard on his knees.

Shi Miyuan continued to pace the yard.Guards of honor and horses were all ready, even sedan chairs and carriages were on standby outside, but hundreds of servants and personal guards did not dare to disturb him, and just waited quietly.

Not long after, Shi Miyuan was so hot by the sun that he suddenly woke up and turned back to the study.

"How about this Han Xi?"

Many cronies in the study turned to look at Yuan Shao.

"It's just an ignorant child, but fortunately, he is very knowledgeable. The reason why he is kept in Lin'an is because he can't make any trouble, but can show the magnanimity of the Prime Minister."

Although Shi Miyuan's nepotism has been widely criticized by the outside world, he has a good eye for knowing and employing people.Regardless of the character of the left and right people, the ability to do things is generally outstanding.It has only been one month since Yuan Shao took over as Yin of Lin'an Prefecture, and at the foot of the emperor, there are so many things to coordinate with all parties.But when Shi Miyuan suddenly asked about an insignificant person, Yuan Shao responded without hesitation.

Shi Miyuan nodded slightly, then shook his head slightly.

He stared at Yuan Shao, and asked in a low voice: "Have you ever thought about how this kid can enter Piyong because he is ignorant? I don't understand now. He is knowledgeable, so how could he appear in the troop of Tai students making trouble?" inside?"

The so-called Piyong is the school set up by the emperor of Zhou in ancient times.In the Taixue of the Song Dynasty, there were outer houses, inner houses and upper houses.During the reign of Chongning, Emperor Huizong built Piyong, and moved the students from the Taixue's foreign house to live and study in Piyong.Shi Miyuan said casually at this moment, referring to Han Xi's body in the outer house, which shows how vigilant the You Cheng of the Song Dynasty is to the stepping stones of his superiors.

Obviously, for Han Xi to be able to retain his status as a Tai student, there must be someone taking care of him behind the scenes.Shi Miyuan was well aware of this, but for various reasons, he did not stop it.From this point of view, Shi Xiangye's second question is really very meaningful.

Yuan Shao's heart trembled, and he quickly said: "Master Xiang, I was negligent on this. I will send someone to investigate immediately!"

"In the past few days, your attention has been focused on Li Yun's external communication channels. Ding Haijun has close contacts with us in maritime trade, and has a lot of ties to it. You must not act rashly. You can only rely on accumulation Manpower. These are the only people available in Lin'an Mansion, and it's only natural that they don't care about other places."

Yuan Shao bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your understanding."

"Go! Go find out and report back as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

Yuan Shao got up and lifted the feet of his robe, and was about to set off.

Turning around and taking two steps, Shi Miyuan called him back: "You've worked hard these days, haven't you eaten breakfast? Take these hemp balls with you to pad your belly on the road."

Yuan Shao was so grateful that he left in a hurry; when he crossed the threshold, he almost stumbled because he was not in the right mind.

Shi Miyuan stood under the eaves, watching him gallop off and return to the study, his complexion was iron.

Everyone knew that this was another test for Yuan Shao by Shi Miyuan. After the new governor of Lin'an Prefecture left, the study room was the real place to discuss secrets.

"Master Xiang, do you have to send someone to take care of you, Eldest Young Master and Young Master?" It was Shi Miyuan's right-hand man, Hu Ju, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, who asked the question.

"The north has experienced wars, and Guo Ning, the Duke of Zhou behind Li Yun, has such deep common interests with us...Even though the two sides have their own goals, we must continue to cooperate after the contest. This Li Yun was detained by us for a month, and this moment is just an excuse. Sapo, vent your dissatisfaction. Don't worry, he will never dare to seriously kill my nephew and nephew. With Xue Ji around Chi'an, it is enough. If you want revenge, there are thousands of opportunities in the future, so don't be in a hurry."

The implication of these words is that compared with political gains and losses, don't care too much about the life and death of your children and nephews.

Hu Ju hurriedly responded: "The prime minister sees it clearly."

Shi Miyuan stood in front of his own chair, and instead of taking a seat, he murmured: "However, Li Yun has a very deep understanding of the changes in the situation in Lin'an. It's definitely not because he was able to inquire about it half a year ago when he ate, drank, prostituted, and gambled on the West Lake. They came out! There must be many people who are going to infiltrate the Navy through maritime trade, and there must be many who escaped from Yuan Shao's surveillance! You have to investigate carefully!"

Hearing these few words, the officials present were solemn for a moment, and exchanged secret glances one after another.

It is true that the profits at sea have been too great recently, and there are countless benefits from colleagues and family members around you.

In case Shi Xiang has a whim, like the previous time, he will block the maritime grain trade...

Not to mention that there is no way to block the sea trade route now, and Shi Xiang's order can't be done at all, and it will only shake his own prestige.Even if it is blocked, who will lose the most?The navy in the north is nothing more than raising fewer soldiers. There are so many officials and eunuchs in the south, but the loss is real, Huang Chengcheng's money!
Among the money, the biggest shares still belong to the people who are sitting in the study of Geling Villa at the moment, and these people will in turn give a considerable part of it to Shi Miyuan and his relatives. This chain of interests has long been The porcelain has already been made.

Just as the Prime Minister is extremely tired of the turmoil in the current court, officials also instinctively oppose the turmoil caused by maritime interests.

While hesitating, Shi Miyuan pondered for a moment, pointed to Hu Ju: "Zhong Fang, I remember that you were an official in Qingyuan Mansion and Quanzhou back then."

"Yes, in Shaoxi's fifth year, I supervised the local wine industry in Qingyuan Mansion. In Qingyuan's third year, I went to Quanzhou and managed the local Shibo Department. It was a total of eight years. Governance."

"You start preparing now, and within three or two days, when the decree and documents are complete, you will be the magistrate of Fuzhou."

"The Prime Minister has an order, so I will obey it naturally, but what is the task of going to Fuzhou?"

"The group of people who contacted the Banjing Pavilion under the banner of Mingzhou Shipping Department did it for us to see. After all, Mingzhou is where my house is, and Zhang Liangpeng doesn't have the guts to mess around. But, I know Recently, in order to raise their own fleet, the officials in Lin'an have more or less borrowed ships from Fuzhou, and they have also cooperated with Yaren Yahang in Fuzhou."

Shi Miyuan tapped on the table and said: "The real sneak into Xingxing, and Li Yun's secret thread, must come from Fuzhou. Zhong Fang, you go to be the magistrate of Fuzhou, but don't meddle in the affairs of the Shibosi. Eyes, look closely. You don’t have to worry about it, if you understand it in two or three years, come back to court, and I will protect you as a palace scholar.”

Hu Ju leaned over: "Obey!"

Shi Miyuan looked around at the rest of the people: "As for the driving force behind the Taisheng students' disturbance, since Li Yun has found out a person, saying that he has found out hidden dangers...he can't be talking nonsense. There must be a clear direction in these words. , and, for us, it means a lot. Everyone, do you think that the hidden danger is a kid named Han Xi?"

impossible.

When Han Tuozhou was in power, on the one hand, Confucianism was strictly prohibited, causing the Qingyuan Party ban, which was at odds with the courtiers and Chinese officials;After Shi Xiang came to power, he kept Han Xi as a bait, and wiped out the remaining party of Han Tuozhou time and time again.

Today, there are very few remaining members of Han Yuzhou's party. Even if he deeply hates Shixiang, he can't accomplish anything. At most, he can only cooperate with the simple-minded students and become a tool to be used by others.But this tool has two peculiarities.Firstly, it is valuable, because it cannot be used by people of very high status; secondly, it is useless, because even if it is used, it will not achieve any purpose, and those who will push Han Xi ahead must have no political sense, and they do not really understand the political situation in Lin'an .

Several people in the study thought of these two points at the same time, so they followed the clues, and then thought of a person, but hesitated to say it.

It's better that Xuan Zang is more qualified, and he doesn't have so many scruples in speaking.He got up and stood by the door of the study, making sure that the servants preparing the chariots and horses in the courtyard had dispersed, and then turned back, solemnly saying: "It can only be the heir of Prince Yi!"

Shi Miyuan nodded.

"What is Yi Wang's heir doing in such a hurry? Could it be that..."

Shi Miyuan said with some regret: "The prince's illness is getting worse."
